The Pittsburgh Steelers made a big splash this summer, sending Minkah Fitzpatrick packing and acquiring Jalen Ramsey. Being one of the best cornerbacks in recent memory, that move of course brought some high expectations for the defense as a whole, with Ramsey playing a Swiss army knife type of role.
Before the season began, former Steelers’ CB Steven Nelson did not like the move. Regarding Mike Tomlin claiming Ramsey would cover WR1’s in training camp, Nelson called Ramsey “easy money”. Now that Ramsey had a poor game against Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins on Thursday, Nelson feels vindicated.
